    Abstract: A device includes a transmitter coupled to a node, where the node is to couple to a wired link. The transmitter has a plurality of modes of operation including a calibration mode in which a range of communication data rates over the wired link is determined in accordance with a voltage margin corresponding to the wired link at a predetermined error rate. The range of communication data rates includes a maximum data rate, which can be a non-integer multiple of an initial data rate.

    Abstract: A method is disclosed. The method includes sampling a data signal having a voltage value at an expected edge time of the data signal. A first alpha value is generated, and a second alpha value generated in dependence upon the voltage value. The data signal is adjusted by the first alpha value to derive a first adjusted signal. The data signal is adjusted by the second alpha value to derive a second adjusted signal. The first adjusted signal is sampled to output a first data value while the second adjusted signal is sampled to output a second data value. A selection is made between the first data value and the second data value as a function of a prior received data value to determine a received data value.

    Abstract: A phase detection circuit can include two phase detectors that each generate a non-zero output in response to input signals being aligned in phase. The input signals are based on two periodic signals. The phase detection circuit subtracts the output signal of one phase detector from the output signal of the other phase detector to generate a signal having a zero value when the periodic signals are in phase. Alternatively, a phase detector generates a phase comparison signal indicative of a phase difference between periodic signals. The phase comparison signal has a non-zero value in response to input signals to the phase detector being aligned in phase. The input signals are based on the periodic signals. An output circuit receives the phase comparison signal and generates an output having a zero value in response to the periodic signals being aligned in phase.
